Sweet Potato Bread
Ingredients
- 1 cake yeast
- 1/4 cupful lukewarm water
- 1 cupful scalded milk
- 1 tablespoonful salt
- 1/2 cupful sugar
- 1 cupful sweet mashed potatoes
- 3 tablespoonfuls melted butter
Directions
Dissolve the yeast in the lukewarm water, add the milk, salt, sugar, and potatoes (roasted, scraped from the skins, and worked to a cream with the melted butter), then allow to cool. Beat all together until light, then stir in with a wooden spoon enough flour to make a soft dough. Throw a cloth over the bread bowl and set in a warm place until well raised. Make into small loaves; let them rise for an hour and bake in a brisk oven.
